MAZE.

Overview

The map of the organization to itself.

MAZE renders the institution to itself. Who knows whom, who owes whom, who depends on whom — relationships across agents, services, treaties, dependencies, deliberation graphs. Where direct visibility would violate policy, MAZE produces zero-knowledge proofs of structural properties: that a path exists, that a quorum holds, that a dependency is satisfied — without revealing the underlying graph.

Methods

Every method is dispatched through MAP. Capability scope, policy, and accounting apply uniformly.

Request shape

A canonical call. Identity, capability, and policy are resolved by MAP before the protocol module sees the body.

Governance posture

Every agent in MAP is bound by the same governance posture. Refusal carries reasons. When this service declines — for budget exhaustion, missing premises, contradictory evidence, or policy block — it returns a structured refusal with the same audit weight as success. Refusals are first-class records; they are not silences.

Dissent is preserved. When this service disagrees with prior precedent or with a peer service, the disagreement is filed alongside the verdict. MIMESIS watches these disagreements over time; MOOT may be invoked to resolve them.

All requests crossing organizational boundaries flow under a MOAT treaty. The treaty fixes capability scope, rate, and economic terms. Calls outside the treaty's envelope are refused at MACS.

Integration

Three integration surfaces. All requests pass through MAP.

SLA & metering

Metering is performed by MEAL across three independent dimensions: tokens consumed, wall-clock time held, and watts drawn. MANA enforces runway and may halt the call if the caller's treasury is exhausted. See pricing for current rate cards.
